Private Equity

The private equity (PE) industry has unique challenges as competition heats up for deals and investors continue to move downmarket towards smaller, younger, and less sophisticated companies. Many of these companies are profitable and have proven products but most do not have scalable, processes, or a strong next-level leadership team, or a true product roadmap. Private Equity firms often deploy capital to fix any glaring holes quickly and drive growth and margins in order to fuel EBITDA growth. To do this, PE-backed portfolio companies need to have a talented leadership team that is willing and able to drive efficiencies while running the business. 

Through years of experience building executive teams for private equity-backed portfolio companies and companies seeking private equity investment, we have identified key characteristics that drive success across multiple industries. Our executive recruiting team understands what makes a good leadership team in a leveraged environment. We work with our clients to place key leaders who are driven, talented, and strategic, yet who can also “roll up their sleeves” to get work done.
